New product development 

From idea to marketable product

Do you have an idea for a new product and want to develop it into a professional, market-ready product? Through our new product development service, we help turn your idea into a concrete, tested product. We combine a strong technical foundation with a personal approach, working closely with you to test, refine and translate ideas into practical solutions. 

HSF

We support you with product development

A strong product does not happen by itself. It requires testing, experimentation and continuous refinement. That is why we see product development as a collaborative process. We combine your ideas and brand vision with our expertise in product development and production. Step by step, we develop the optimal formulation, taking into account taste, ingredients, shelf life and technical feasibility. Where necessary, we involve specialised partners from our network. Because we have our own production facility, we can not only develop products, but also manufacture and scale them. Together, we create a product that fits your brand and is ready for professional production.

  1. Concept development

    We develop your idea into a clear product concept, including defined parameters for scope, planning and budget.

  2. Recipe development

    Together, we develop and optimise the initial recipe.

  3. Test batches and fine-tuning

    We produce small test batches and refine the product together.

  4. Production process development

    We translate the recipe into an efficient and scalable production process.

  5. Ingredients & packaging

    We select suitable ingredients and packaging that match your product concept.

  6. Quality & Food Safety

    We ensure compliance with all relevant legal and regulatory requirements. 

  7. Scaling up to production

    From the initial recipe to large-scale production, without compromising on quality.

  8. Preparing for market launch

    Getting your new product ready for launch

How we helped NO WASTE ARMY

Giving 12,200 kg of surplus pumpkin a second life

No Waste army

Working with No Waste Army, we immediately got to work in the kitchen and production facility. We explored different possibilities, developed the first recipes and tested small batches to optimise taste, texture and quality. This process allowed us to respond quickly and refine the recipes until they were ready for larger-scale production.
